    Icoms Detections has added an easy-to-use radar for the detection of stationary vehicles at the stop-line to its I-tersection range. A vehicle approaching or stopping in the targeted activates a relay loop, which is held until the vehicle moves. The advantage over inductive loop technology is the absence of the need for roadworks for installation. The sensor also provides warning of whether vehicles fail to start as expected, because of congestion, obstruction, driver inattention and so on. At this year’s s
